I have just found out the one thing that confuses the hell out of players,
Unrelated incident.
Example (Fro and Skye may remember this):
Fro and Skye are in this Bar called "The Voodoo Lounge" And they are
meeting a contact. The Voodoo lounge also happens to be owned by the voodoo
preist in one of my other groups. Now what do you think happens when a
group of people obviously runner walk into this bar? Big ole black dude
with top hat and tail, and short punky type decker and a troll with not
well hidden weaponary...."I reach into my coat and get my gun ready."
Another thing is that they think that anything you say is important.
I (in the vl again) once said that they is a guy sitting in the corner
eating soup...I then had the player ask every five mins what this guy was
doing..
I know that paranoia is what is meant to keep players alive but when they
shit themselves over a guy..


"I hope I didn't rush anything," Kyle said.
Strevich shrugged. "Nothing thr next guy can't clean up."
"Pleasant image."
